🔥 Top Scoops in Louisville, KY

Louisville Metro has issued an emergency-order demolition at 114 N 26th St — a vacant, one-story former residence (about 1,380 sq ft) owned by Snyder Gregory A — with work scheduled to begin 01/16/2026. Because asbestos is involved, the permit allows RACM to remain in place during demolition and requires Aesthetic Industrial Contracting, Inc. to minimize disturbance, keep materials adequately wet, containerize and promptly dispose of debris (no tracked vehicles on demolition debris) and treat all demolition waste as regulated asbestos-containing material, with disposal planned at WM Outer Loop Landfill, so crews will be taking extra precautions.

Applicant Alex Perry of SHJ Development, LLC has submitted a Category 2 development plan to build a Tidal Wave Auto Spa car wash at 5209 Dixie Hwy on 1.86 acres. The property is owned by Lawson George D Jr and the proposal calls for a new 3,507-square-foot commercial auto-service building, so it looks like a standalone car wash rather than a mixed-use project.

Brown Sprinkler Corporation is replacing and relocating the existing sprinklers at 1449 Bardstown Rd to match a new wall-and-ceiling layout for a tenant fit-up for a new bakery for owner TLA Investments LLC (project noted as Yonutz). The sprinkler-only alteration covers 14 units, is estimated at $1,000, and will be installed to NFPA 13 (2013) and local codes with test papers required upon completion.
